ABSTRACT
It is obvious in the present technology age that almost all the
organization has adopted the use of computer in the operation. This is due to
many set back associated with many operations in only business organization.
Different organization and establishment have taken the use of computer, which
has consequently increased leading to high level of productivity and
maximization of profit just mention a few. In view of the benefit from the use
of computer, this project work titled DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AUTOMATED
LIBRARY SYSTEM was developed to look into the use of computer to help library
Department to find a more reliable, accurate and adequate facilities of
storing, accessing and retrieving both books and other functions that is
performed in the library to ensure timeliness and efficient output. The content
of the chapters explain the introduction description of the existing system,
methodology used, conclusion and recommendation.

INTRODUCTION
A system or computer system can be said to be an electronic
device or machine, which accept data, process programs and then produce a
result output from the processed as
information.
Moreover, they said system is general
purpose in use. It handles more volume of data. It is versatile accurate,
efficient, very fast etc. when compared with manual approach of carrying out
operation owing to the increase in the rate with which a timely and accurate
information are being demanded , there is need to provide a system to supply
the necessary information where and when it is needed.
Automated of library system is a computer system for cataloging and
retrieval of information in books, journals and other media. Automated library
as a digitalized method of storing library resources.
A library
is a collection of resources and services, and the structure in which it is
housed; it is organized for use and maintained by a public body, an
institution, or a private individual. In the more traditional sense, a library
is a collection of books. It can mean the collection, the building or room that
houses such a collection or both [2].
Library is
a collection of literary documents or records kept for reference or burrowing
[1] Libraries can be divided into
categories by several methods:
a) By the entity (institution, municipality,
or corporate body) that supports or perpetuates them.

libraries
·
Corporate
libraries
·
Government
libraries. Such as national libraries
·
Historical
society libraries

hold

1.1
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF OSUN STATE
POLYTECHNIC LIBRARY IREE
Osun
state polytechnic Iree was formerly a satellite campus of the Ibadan
polytechnic, before Osun state was created in 12th, October 1992 by
the former Head of state Gen Ibraheem Babaginda RTD) and the polytechnic became
an autonomous on 2002 when the Governor of Osun state by then, Alhaji Isiaka
Adeleke signed the law establishing the institution alongside and as soon as
Osun state polytechnic was established the library commission was also
established immediately the polytechnic commenced their operation.
1.2
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Due
to problem of lack of prompt information retrieval and time wastage in using
the library. In addition due to the cumbersome, in this project computer
approach will be used to solve these problems. Each of the manual procedure is
analyzed and is programmed using Visual Basic 6.0 in module are linked together
in order to have a library system and because of its graphic user interface (G
U I) feature displaying pictures and other standard objects. It’s choice for
the system designing because it make file organization and calculation easy
it’s also a popular language to stimulate most design system, most especially
the database facilities so, it can store
large volume of data.
1.3
PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT
The purpose of this project
is to examine all the problems that faced both the library personnel especially
the librarian, library Assistants, library attendant(s) and the library users,
such as provides quick search facility to user who wishes to check for
availability of a particular resources, it provides electronic means of
storage, It help librarians keep track of library information etc.
1.4
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJET
The
aim of the project is to automate and integrate system that will give library
users opportunity to catalogue and retrieval of information in books, journals
and other media and to digitalized method of storing library resources and to
have access to different library information. Objectives of the system include:
i.
To
minimize the cost of traveling from one place to another in visiting one or
more libraries.
ii.
To
give users access to the library information at their own convenient time of
the day.
iii.
To
minimize cost of getting hard copy of relevant materials from the library i.e.
the users can view and read the soft copy o f the relevant materials through
the displaying unit.
1.5
SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
The scope of this project is also
the range or ambition of this work, which information is needed, the way the
proposed system is used, the available technology willingness on the part of
commission to change from the existing system to the new and some of this point
will be fully explained in the subsequent chapter of the project.
The proposed system will cover the
various kind of operation in the library system, some of the areas which the
system will cover are:
Library user
log-in page, student information page assessment, student register e.t.c.
1.6
LIMITATION OF THE PROJECT
The system being designed is
specifically designed to automate the library system. But not all the needed
facts are available due to the following reasons:
v Unwillingness on the part of library
personnel especially the librarian consulted for the needed information.
v The duration assigned for the project
is very small.
v Due to the receiving the lecture in
the class, this made me not to go to research centre (library) always to
collect necessary information.
